Good morning! How are we faithing? It is interesting that people work their whole life gathering more and more stuff only to leave it for someone else to squander. There is nothing wrong with providing for ones family and leaving an inheritance but is that your only mission? Does accumulation drive you? At what point is enough enough? Who decides that? What is interesting is people still strive for more thinking at some point they will be happy but the striving never stops. We tend to not be satisfied when our focus is the riches instead of the riches coming from simple hard work. Do you see the attitude shown? This isn't a dissertation on money itself but the lust for it and how that will lead to all sorts of things. Look at verse 11;
Jas 1:11 For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
We all came from the womb naked and devoid of any stuff and we all will be laying in a grave likewise. Not depressing at all just fact. Now where you choose to live absent from this body is up to you. You want to be the next gazillionare and have streets named after you, be my guest but when the street urchin and you stand before God clothed the same and answering for your life I pray you both knew the savior and accepted his gift of pardon. At that point riches or non riches mean nothing.
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for your salvation. Lord we ask you to help us all adjust our vision so we see you and our hearing so your voice comes through load and clear. Forgive our sins Lord and place in us a clean heart with much wisdom and focus on living holy. Lord we praise you. Lead our lives. In Jesus name we rebuke the enemy and his lies. bless the kids of all ages and keep them safe. in Jesus name, amen
